Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor of the Colony
of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice and consent
of the Executive Council of the said colony, and in pursu-

Conditions of Management.

  1. In these conditions the term "Minister" means the
    Minister having charge of the Marine Department, as defined
    by "The Shipping and Seamen's Act, 1877," and includes
    any officer, person, or authority acting by or under the direc-
    tion of such Minister.

  2. All persons shall at all reasonable times, upon payment
    of the proper dues, have free and full liberty to use the said
    wharf, and all rights of ingress and egress thereon and
    therefrom.

  3. Her Majesty, or the Governor, and all officers in the
    Government service acting in the execution of their duty,
    shall at all times have free ingress, passage, and egress into,
    through, and out of the said wharf without payment.

  4. The company shall forthwith properly plank over the
    space between the inner edge of the wharf and high-water
    mark. Such space is edged pink and marked "Space to be
    planked over" on plan M.D. 2020.

  5. The company shall clear all trucks and trollies off the
    tramways on the wharf at the close of each day's work.

    in good order and repair; and shall at all times exhibit
    therefrom and maintain at its own cost suitable and
    necessary lights for the guidance of vessels: Provided that
    no light shall be exhibited until after it has been approved
    of by the Minister.

  7. Any person authorised by the Minister may at all rea-
    sonable times enter upon the said wharf and view the state
    of repair thereof; and upon such Minister leaving at or
    posting to the last known address of the company a notice
    in writing of any defect or want of repair in such wharf, re-
    quiring it, within a reasonable time, to be therein prescribed,
    to repair the same, it shall with all convenient speed cause
    such defect to be removed or such repairs to be made.

  8. Nothing herein contained shall authorise the company
    to do or cause to be done anything repugnant to or incon-
    sistent with any law relating to the Customs, or any regula-
    tion of the Commissioner of Trade and Customs, or with
    any provisions of "The Harbours Act, 1878," or its amend-
    ments, or any regulations made thereunder, and that are
    now or may hereafter be in force.

  9. The ballast of all vessels loading at the said wharf
    shall be taken away by the company and deposited above
    high-water mark, or at such place as may be approved of by
    the Minister, by the Harbourmaster at Kaipara, or by any
    person appointed by the Minister for that purpose.

  10. The rights, powers, and privileges conferred by or
    under this Order in Council shall continue to be in force for
    fourteen years from the date hereof, unless in the meantime
    such rights, powers, and privileges shall be altered, modified,
    or revoked by competent authority; and the company shall
    not assign, charge, or part with any such right, power, or
    privilege without the written consent of the Minister first
    obtained.

  11. The said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any
    time resumed by the Governor, without payment of any
    compensation whatever, on giving to the company six calen-
    dar months' previous notice in writing. Any such notice
    shall be sufficient if given by the Minister and delivered at
    or posted to the last known registered office of the company
    in New Zealand.

  12. The company shall be liable for any injury which the
    said wharf may cause any vessel or boat to sustain through
    any default or neglect on its part.

  13. In consideration of the concessions and privileges
    granted by this Order in Council, the company shall pay to
    the Minister the annual sum of £3, dating from the 1st day
    of October, 1895; the first of such payments to be made on
    the company being supplied with a copy of this Order in
    Council.

  14. In case the company shall—
    (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
    before set forth, or any of them;
    (2.) Cease to use or occupy the said wharf for a period
    of thirty days; or
    (3.) Be in any manner wound up or dissolved,
    then and in either of the said cases this Order in Council,
    and every right, power, or privilege, may be revoked and
    determined by the Governor in Council without any notice
    to the company or other proceeding whatsoever; and pub-
    lication in the New Zealand Gazette of an Order in Council
    containing such revocation shall be sufficient notice to the
    company, and to all persons concerned or interested, of the
    facts stated in such Order in Council.
